A320cap 0 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hello, Is there any utility which will allow me to write an e-mail and then send it automatically? For example: I want to send a Happy Birthday e-mail to sb but I will be away when his birthday "arrives". Can I write it and when the day arrives send it automatically? Is this possible with Gmail?

mutley 4,498 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Panos, I don't think you can do this in Gmail, Hotmail etc The only way I know to send delayed mails is in Microsoft Outlook connected to an exchange server (We have that at work) the mail can be set for a pre-determined time in your outbox before it it sent. Sorry. Link to post Share on other sites
A320cap 0 Posted December 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 It's ok,thx. Can u tell me how to do it in outlook? Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Panos, You have to be connected to an Microsoft Exchange Server otherwise it doesn't work. If you use a Microsoft Exchange Server, you can delay delivery of an individual message by selecting the "Do not deliver before" check box, and then click the delivery date and time you want it sent. Otherwise send me the mail and I will forward it for you :wink: Will you not have access remotely to your email? Also ,when are you away ? (I am thinking ATWC here) Please mail me!

A320cap 0 Posted December 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Joe, Should I pay for this server? Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Panos, Usually the MS Exchange server is usually owned/run by big companies. I cannot see it worth it only for a couple of mails, have a Google, you may find something? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Hi Panos! Sorry to hi-jack your post, but this is a message to Mut: Re: New Forum and Message under 'Tweaking'.... Hey - on this reply form, I have: a) Smileys - :-) :mrhappy: :wink: etc B) italics and colour c) normal form width. And it doesn't look like this!!: O.K. Joe?!? And Happy New Year to you, Panos - may 2008 be the year you really excel! Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 My reply forms look like that...is it a problem? :doh When I paste in a smiley I just see text, but once the reply is posted, all looks as it should. I thought that's why there was a preview button. I'm quite content this way - no need to make any changes on my account. John Link to post Share on other sites
